ATV320U40N4C Altivar Machine ATV320 4kW Compact AC Drive 380‑500V | Schneider Electric

The Original New Schneider Electric ATV320U40N4C is a 4 kW (5 HP) variable speed drive from the Altivar Machine ATV320 series, designed for three-phase synchronous and asynchronous motors. Its compact form factor allows vertical stacking of drives inside machine frames, saving valuable control cabinet space. Integrated Class C2 EMC filter, robust coated PCBs (IEC 60721-3-3 class 3C3), and comprehensive safety functions (STO, SS1, SLS, SMS, GDL) make this drive suitable for demanding OEM and industrial automation applications including packaging, material handling, textile, and conveying systems. Fully integrated with Schneider Electric's EcoStruxure Machine ecosystem via DTM for seamless configuration in SoMove and SoMachine software.
